Nigerians' Mostly Used Acronyms,slangs And Their Meanings. by 2muchopoTBdope(m): 8:58am On Oct 28, 2015 |
Communication is key in any society and in a place like Nigeria where gisting(chatting) is the order of the day, some of us can't even do without gossiping. Both online and offline, we all commuicate. Nigerians are one of the largest users of the internet in recent times. In Nigeria, show me who isn't on whatsapp, bbm, or even 2go, to mention a few. While communicating, a lot of acronyms,shortcuts and slangs have been invented to keep chats more interesting and lively. I have chatted with some people who ask me questions like 'what's the meaning of that acronym you wrote?'. So, I decided to pick out a few to help some of us and they are listed below; LOL - Laugh Out Loud LMAO- Laughing My Ass Out (even girls whey no get ass dey use am, it is well o) LWKMD- Laugh Wan Kill Me Die LWTMB- Laugh Wan Tear My Belle/Bikini TDB - Till Day Break IDC - I Dey Come IDGAF- I Don't Give A Bleep BS - Bull Shitt Gist - Chatting, talking or discussing Chao - Food or To eat Bar/Cheddah- Money Olosho- Girls who trade sex for money Maga - A guy that is foolish with his money especially towards ladies Nak/Shine the Congo - To have sex(mostly used by guys) STFU- Shut The Bleep Up Gerrarahia- Get Out of Here (Credit: Francis Odega) Jamb Question - A difficult or confusing question Tokunbo - Second-hand good or fairly used item Chick/Babe - Used to address girls Orente- A very beautiful and charming lady Bae/Boo- Used to address one's spouse Pic (Pix) - Pic short form for Picture and Pix is the plural SMH - Shaking My Head Dickk/JT- John Thomas, means the male's private part Kit-kat/pucccy/kpetus - The female's private part Esp - Especially (Him/She) Get Leg - To have connections ASAP - As Soon As Possible PMB - President Muhammadu Buhari GEJ - Goodluck Ebele Jonathan BH - Boko Haram CD - ConDom ABJ - Abuja Barca/nyash - The backside of a lady Flavour - Someone who is addicted to Beauty queens BRB- Be Right Back TTYL- Talk To You Later.
